Thanks. I haven't played in the API yet, but I was wondering if that was the way to go. Sounds like it's time to take things to the next level. More time involved, but fun. 

I agree that this is important functionality to add. I have a common select statement I would like to ensure is consistent across several datasets, and a UDF would be the best way to ensure that. Right now the only way I have found to create 'object-oriented' ETL logic is to take things down to R, but that can be quite…

That is a good idea. I think I'm going to take the ingestion off workbench and do it through the R plugin instead. Thanks for the help!

I agree, those should both work, but just do not for me. I know I had it working for a one-off ingestion job a few months ago, and I seem to remember using CONVERT then. I'll keep playing with it. 

I will add a "me too" here and contact support separately. It would be great if there was more posted on requirements as well as troubleshooting solutions - do I need to install something? upgrade something? change privileges? Is there full workbench documentation somewhere that I am just missing?
